Special Price Lists

Special Price Lists are designed to allow you to override existing Price levels that are currently loaded, for a sub-set of items. The "special price" will be presented in the cart as the item’s price for the customer.

Note: You must be using Price Level to begin with in order to use "Special" Price Lists. If you are using the same price for all your customers (such as the Retail or Wholesale price field) you cannot overwrite the prices using Special Price Lists, you will need to change the price itself.

You may want to use this feature if you want to load a list of prices for some of your items that will override your existing prices for a limited time. You can then disable the special price list (by hiding it) and the pricing will return to the original price lists.

This is not a feature for loading your regular or default price. Regular pricing should be loaded via the Items data. For more info on regular pricing see this article: All About Pricing in Pepperi

For example if you have a list of particular items that you DO NOT want to receive any discounts, or that you want to enter a special price for other than the Price List price, you may load a Special Price List for them.

Special Price Lists are assigned to Accounts. Accounts with no Special Price List assigned will continue to use their regular price list and discounts.

This article will explain how to configure Special Price Lists:

1) Create 2 CSV files - Header and Lines - with the Special Prices you wish to assign to specific items.

You now need to assign the Special Price Lists you loaded to Accounts. Either load the API Accounts file via the CSV upload, or if you are loading via Excel add a column to your existing Accounts Excel file with the Special Price List assignment by the Price List Name you entered in the CSV file above.

Re-import your Accounts file without modifying any of the mapping of the other columns.

Map the Special Price List column you added:

4) View your Special Price Lists in the Pepperi Web Admin (Studio)

You may want to view the Special Prices assigned to the items in order to review them for your reference.

Go to Settings - > Price Level -> Special Price Levels

Here you may select the Special Price List and click on Action -> Edit where you can change the code/Description and the currency.

You can also select a Special Price List and click the Integration Export button. This will export an Excel file of the Special Price List header file with the correct headings, which you can then use to import additional Special Price Lists.

Select Import from the Menu, and you will be brought directly to the Upload interface with the correct file type - API SpecialPriceLevel - already selected.

Add a column with the heading "Hidden" with values:

1 - to hide the Special Price List (deactivating it)

0 - to reactivate it again. When it is Hidden it will not show in the list, when it is reactivated it will reappear in the list.

To see the Special Price List Items go to the Price Level Items tab. All Price Level Items are listed here, Price Levels as well as Special Price Lists.

You can do an Integration Export from the Menu. This will export a CSV file with the headings you can use to update the PriceLevelItems.

Select Import from the Menu, and you will be brought directly to the Upload interface with the correct file type - API PriceLevelItems - already selected.
